The employee app is where people do the things only they can do: clock in, check their own record, ask for time off, and read their pay.

Where it is

Open it in your phone’s browser and sign in with your OnTime email and password — the same credentials as any other OnTime surface. There is no separate employee login.
Add it to your home screen. It is built mobile-first and behaves like an installed app once it is there. On iOS use Share → Add to Home Screen; on Android, ⋮ → Add to Home screen.

The five tabs

Today

Am I clocked in? Punch in and out, and see today’s timeline and hours.

History

Your month calendar, and the detail of any past day.

Leave

Balances, applying, and tracking a request through approval.

Pay

Year-to-date, payslips, and tax documents.

Me

Your profile, your sessions, and the devices enrolled to you.

The notification bell

Present throughout the app. It carries an unread count and opens a feed grouped into Today and Earlier — approval decisions, new messages, payslip publication, Form 16 availability.
Notifications are in-app only. There is no email, SMS or push delivery, so the app is where you find out.

Managers use this too

A manager is also an employee. The manager app’s Me tab is this same self-service — a manager’s own punches, leave and payslips live here, and their own leave request goes to their manager.

What you cannot do here

The employee app is deliberately narrow. You cannot see other people’s attendance, approve anything, or change your own attendance record. Corrections go through a regularization — a request somebody else approves.
